Citadel Dry Paints are specially formulated acrylic paints designed for dry brushing, a technique used to quickly highlight raised details and add texture to miniatures. Unlike standard paints, Dry Paints have a thicker, semi-solid consistency that loads onto the brush in a controlled way, making it easier to achieve soft, natural highlights without over-applying colour. This unique texture helps the paint cling to raised edges while leaving recesses untouched, creating instant depth and definition. 

Dry Paints are intended for use after your base colours and shades are fully dry. They work exceptionally well on textured surfaces such as fur, armour edges, cloth folds and terrain pieces, allowing hobbyists to add fast and effective detail with minimal effort. Suitable for Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar miniatures, they adhere well to plastic, resin and metal and blend seamlessly with the rest of the Citadel painting system. 

These paints are ideal for painters of all skill levels and are especially helpful for speeding up large army projects. With quick drying times, easy application and simple cleanup with water, Citadel Dry Paints offer an efficient way to enhance contrast and bring out fine sculpted detail across any model.
